The Government of Canada’s New Horizons for Seniors Program (NHSP) has granted $4,600 to the Radium Hot Springs Seniors Club for the replacement of the club’s carpet bowling carpets and for the purchase of a pickleball game.

“Our government recognizes the diversity of skills, knowledge and experience that seniors contribute to our society and the economy,” Member of Parliament for Kootenay Columbia David Wilks said in a press release.  “Through initiatives such as the [NHSP], we are helping to ensure that seniors maintain a high quality of life and continue as active, participating members of their communities.”
